Genius Son Sells his Mom to Dad

Chapter 471 Inexplicable

Conan puts down the model and jumps happily in the room.

Seeing the child happy because of such a simple thing, Claire feels that she really owes the child.

With a smile, she rubs Conan’s hair and asks, “Now think about where we are going to play.”

“I’ll talk to Daddy first to see if he has any good suggestions.”

The smile solidifies. Claire says, “Well, I’m not going to take your Dad with me this time.”

Conan looks surprised. He doesn’t seem to understand the meaning of Claire’s words.

“I mean, your father is too busy these days to spend time with us. Let’s wait for another chance.”

Next time? When is the next time, it’s hard to say.

The smile disappears slowly. Conan says with lack of interest, “If Daddy doesn’t go, it’s not a family activity.”

“There will be opportunities in the future. This time it will be our mother and son’s leisure time. Oh, if you feel bored, you can call uncle Luke and aunt Kate.”

“Come on, don’t disturb the sweet time of lovers.”

“Then you can choose where you want to go.”

“OK.”

...

Although Claire hints that she doesn’t want Leo to go with her, how could Conan be obedient as a good assistant?

After getting the news, Conan finds Leo at the first time.

“Daddy.”

“What’s the matter?”

Showing his white teeth, Conan says, “It’s really something. Mommy says she would take me to play tomorrow! Although you are busy with something, Dad, you can spare half a day. Mummy says that cherry blossoms are blooming very well recently. She wants to go to the park to enjoy them. It’s so big in the park, maybe we’ll meet something. As long as Daddy...”

Conan is helping Leo to make suggestions, but interrupted by Leo.

“I’m really busy recently. I’m afraid I don’t have time to accompany your mother and you. You and Claire have fun. Next time Daddy will go with you.” Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

Conan is stunned and asks incredulously, “No, Daddy, you really don’t go?”

“Yes.”

Leo’s tone is light, not angry or the elements of gambling in.

Looking at Leo, Conan feels puzzled.

It’s strange that this is not Leo’s style at all. In the past, he heard that Claire was going to leave him and go out to play. Leo would be bound to die. No matter what method he used, he would keep up with her.

But this time, why don’t you fight for yourself and give up?

Maybe he is really angry with mummy.

Thinking of this, Conan grabs his forehead and explains, “Daddy, in fact, Mommy takes care of aunt Ashley because she has a sense of justice, not really blaming Daddy.”

“I know better than you what your Mommy thinks.”

The cold and calm words of Leo stops the chatter of Conan.

With a light shrug, Conan says, “It’s the same, so I don’t need to say anything to cover up contradictions. But Daddy, you let Mommy continue to misunderstand you and your relationship is more and more cold. Going out to play is a good opportunity. Why does Daddy give up?”

Conan can’t stand these two people. It’s clear that they have such a good relationship, but they still have a cold war. When will they be reconciled?

“I didn’t give up, just to calm your Mommy a little. And at this time, I do nothing can ease our relationship and do not give people with ulterior motives a chance to start.”

“I know that Daddy still cares about Aunt Ashley, but she is completely controlled by you. What else can she do? Will Daddy worry more?”

When it comes to Ashley, Leo squints and says, “That woman’s mind is quite deep and she has means, so I have to defend.”

Thinking of the contradiction between them, Conan asks, “The contradiction between aunt Ashley and Daddy is that she wants to get Mr. Bennett’s criminal information from you. You can just give it to her. Anyway, it will not affect our Howard Group. Solving this contradiction, you and auntie Ashley shake hands and make peace, Mommy will not blame you any more. Will it not be settled?”

Is it really done? If things were that simple, Leo would not have a cold war with Claire.

Seeing that Leo doesn’t speak, Conan lowers his head powerlessly and says, “Well, let yourself have a headache about your adult business.”

With that, Conan turns around and leaves the room. He has a headache.

Putting down the pen, Leo’s hands are fold on his chin and he looks into the distance.

...

Although she wants to go out for relaxation, Claire’s mind is not on this. When they are going to leave home, she hasn’t make any preparations. She just grabs a hat and goes out.

But Conan is different. He will pack his back one day in advance.

Before leaving, Claire sees Conan’s huge backpack. She is surprised and asks, “What do you bring with? How do you pack it with bulging bags?”

“Eat, drink and play. Oh, It’s Mommy’s sunscreen.” Reaching out and pointing out of the window, Conan explains, “It’s sunny outside today. Don’t get sunburn.”

The kid’s so intimate answer makes Claire blush.

This is all she should do, but she let the children worry about it. She really failed.

Reaching for the backpack on Conan’s shoulder, Claire perks up and says with a smile, “Although it’s a little bit sunny, the weather is still very good. We’ll have a good day today!”

“OK, I need to take beautiful pictures for Mommy.”

The mother and son walks out laughing and talking. When they pass the garden, Claire glances up and looks at Leo on the second floor.

Leo stands in front of the window, hands in his pants pocket, quietly looking at Claire downstairs.

Claire is stunned and looks away, and then she leaves quickly with Conan.

“Well, Daddy is there, Mommy you...”

“Conan, let’s go quickly.”

Before Conan finished, Claire drags him away.

Looking up at Leo, Conan is helpless.

And Leo follows Claire until she disappears.

Drooping his eyes, he is silent for a moment and then he takes a step, walks across the corridor to a room.

Hearing the sound of opening the door, Ashley looks up. When she sees Leo, Ashley’s expression is very calm, as if she has known he would come.

“You’re calmer than I thought. You haven’t come to me until now.”

Leo looks down at her, expressionless.

At this moment, as long as Leo wants, he can easily take Ashley’s life.

But Ashley does not have any worries, instead, she looks at Leo provocatively, because she firmly believes that the man does not dare to move her, at least not now.
